Our translations: ENG

Le mont Aön de Trace, doulz pais
Ou resonnent les douçours d'armonie,
A en sa court ix dames de haut pris
Qui de beauté tiennent la seignorie ;
La tient Phebus son sejour,
Quar d'elles vient sens, bien et toute honour
Dont cuer d'amant se doit moult esjoir
Se leur amour il pouvoit acquerir.

Mount Aön in Thrace

Language: English after the French (Français)

Mount Aön in Thrace, a sweet land
In which sound sweet harmonies,
Has in its court nine most prized ladies
Who hold pre-eminence in beauty;
There Phoebus [Apollo] takes his rest,
For from them come good sense, goodness and all honour
In which a lover's heart ought to rejoice
If their love he could gain.
